Microbiota Community of Irritable Bowel Syndrome in Episodes and Remission Phase

October 1, 2015 updated by: Yanqing Li, Shandong University
Analyze microbiota community of irritable bowel syndrome in episodes phase and remission phase.

Study Overview

Status

Detailed Description

The pathophysiology of IBS is incompletely understood, it may involve an altered intestinal microbiota. Since the microflora composition of IBS is various in different studies, The investigators plan to compare the intestinal microbiota of IBS patients in episodes phase and remission phase with healthy controls,trying to find the difference.
